Yogurt Stand

Solid Canadian Black Walnut was used thought the store, accented with Gabon Ebony.

This piece was built to fit around the frozen yogurt machine, with a shelf that can be raised up to place a crock pot on for samples. It is built with frame and panel construction with 3/8’’ thick matched panels. The side shelf is built with a Maloof style wooden hinge and wood shelf support which swings up and supports the shelf.

We gave the client a cutting/serving board to place on the side shelf as a surprise, mostly because it would be easier to be cleaned if something was spilled but also to show our appreciation for the work.

looks great man! the Hinge turned out perfrectly. I like the cutting board Idea. I’ve done the same thing with several of my commissions and I think most of them liked the free cutting board more than the piece, not sure what that says about my work : )

Thanks fellow jocks, I credit the beautiful walnut lumber we’ve been especially lucky with the quality of lumber we’ve been able to pick up especially with the uniqueness of the wood and amount of figure. We buy most of it from a local person who harvests, saws and dries it all him self and he delivers! (-:

This was our first attempt at a wooden hinge and support, which worked out exactly how we pictured it in our heads.We sand everything up to 500grit abralon, burnish with a sheep wool pad, then apply our 3 part wipe on wipe off oil-poly finish.

Custom work really makes your head work, but we like the challenge and appreciate clients who appreciate this quality. They understand they will have their cabinets as long as the store exists if not longer (-:

There is not actually a drip tray in the board, we wanted to leave as much surface area for what ever they put on it, to not have to worry about a foot of a crock pot teetering in the groove. I’m sure they will be quick to wipe up any spills.
